. And I'm here to say it's not as many people as you think...when you consider the whole Louisiana angler population ETA: Especially when you consider that many of the anglers that go fishing say that they fish for anything that will bite their bait (i.e. they don't specifically target specks) m
For serious speck fisherman, it's a decent number. Those people also fish more than some person that buys a license and doesn't even fish or just throws a dead shrimp out on a jig head once a year. I see what you are saying, but lots of people limit.
Edit: and it's not just my friends. I used to clean trout for extra money when I was a kid. Tons of folks with their limit.

I think I read somewhere that the average angler catches around 6 speckled trout per trip in Louisiana.

it's an interesting topic...the topic I speak of is targeting.
Anglers that are specifically targetting Specks tend to limit out more than those that are not targetting specks.
Problem is most people won't say they target Specks exclusively
